Fantastic voyage

In the event
that this fantastic voyage
Should turn to erosion
and we never get old
Remember it´s true, dignity is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
We´re learning to live with somebody´s depression
And I don´t want to live with somebody´s depression
We´ll get by, I suppose
It´s a very modern world,
but nobody´s perfect
It´s a moving world,
but that´s no reason
To shoot some of those missiles
Think of us as fatherless scum
It won´t be forgotten
´Cause we´ll never say anything nice again, will we?
And the wrong words make you listen
In this criminal world
Remember it´s true, loyalty is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
We´re learning to live with somebody´s depression
And I don´t want to live with somebody´s depression
We´ll get by I suppose
But any sudden movement I´ve got to write it down
They wipe out an entire race and I´ve got to write it down
But I´m still getting educated but I´ve got to write it down
And it won´t be forgotten
´Cause I´ll never say anything nice again, how can I?
that this fantastic voyage
Should turn to erosion
and we never get old
Remember it´s true, dignity is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
We´re learning to live with somebody´s depression
And I don´t want to live with somebody´s depression
We´ll get by, I suppose
It´s a very modern world,
but nobody´s perfect
It´s a moving world,
but that´s no reason
To shoot some of those missiles
Think of us as fatherless scum
It won´t be forgotten
´Cause we´ll never say anything nice again, will we?
And the wrong words make you listen
In this criminal world
Remember it´s true, loyalty is valuable
But our lives are valuable too
We´re learning to live with somebody´s depression
And I don´t want to live with somebody´s depression
We´ll get by I suppose
But any sudden movement I´ve got to write it down
They wipe out an entire race and I´ve got to write it down
But I´m still getting educated but I´ve got to write it down
And it won´t be forgotten
´Cause I´ll never say anything nice again, how can I?
